Good call, BT!
I've got a bowl sized portion of some gumbolaya in the freezer. That will give me my 'face over a bowl of steamy goodness' feeling that a casserole would have. I think, lol.
I'm off to pull that, some crab legs and some shrimp out of the freezer.

We're having chicken thighs for dinner. I'm taking b/l s/l chichen thighs and tossing them with flour seasoned with salt & pepper, and some creole seasoning. Then I will drizzle them with some EVOO and oven bake them at 400* for 20 minutes, flip and finish baking. On the side we'll have some smashed garlic potatoes, and steamed broccoli.

the 8 year old is the only girl i've ever known who has her own pink, .22 cal. rifle, lol.

[/QUOTE]</p>My how times have changed! I was the only little girl on the block who had a pink Tonka truck. My father inadvertently threw it out when cleaning the garage when I was in university (something I will never let him forget). The pink .22 cal rifle will give her a strong sense of who she is as she grows up. I didn't know 8 yr. olds were "playing" with pink .22 cal. rifles these days, yikes!
